3DownNation sucks.  Almost their entire "top 20" remain unsigned.  Clearly their perception and that of CFL GM's are not in sync.

I believe they’re updating it as guys get signed. Fenner was number 1 at one point.

Messam to the Riders. 

 

Im happy to see them spend their money on players like him.

[Brandon]

i'm surprised that Messam would want to go back to the Green?     

Good pick up for them

[Brandon]

Greaves off to BC

Honestly didn't even realize he still wanted to play football.

Coulda swore Priders told the world not so long ago "you cant build a team thru free agency".

That only applies to other teams, when Jones does it...it's genius.

[Booch]

and we act like drunken sailors on free agency day...and thats not the way to do it....hahaha

[do or die]

Almost knew that would happen.    Next will be some bragging about "winning" FA

I know if someone told me I had to overnight in Regina, there'd be fear in my eyes.

with so much tied up into only a few starters I have the feeling the riders will be thin depth wise.  few injuries and the parade is cancelled by sept.

Day 1 of CFL Free Agency 2018:

 

[GCn20]

The "fear" Mr. Evans is because players tend to fall into the local habit of not brushing their teeth once they get to Regina. It's like a wave that hits you when you are across the line from them.

In fairness, you do have to hit about 30 or 40 stores before you can find one selling toothbrushes and that's if you know to look under the cobwebs.

After taking a slow approach in free agency and wanting to weigh all his options, it looks like Jamaal Westerman has chosen the Montreal Alouettes. Interest came from many teams, including WPG, TOR and OTT. No word yet on years and money but expecting deal to be done today. #wfp

Good luck to him in that **** show

[Noeller]

No hard feelings toward the Busterman....he played hard for the Bombers. Best of luck to him out east...

[GCn20]

Makes sense for the Als. I never thought that Westerman was a merc but I guess I was wrong.

[Goalie]

Prob got QB money since they dont have 1. But good luck

[blue_gold_84]

Not shocked at all by this. I still can't believe Walters had $200K on the table to retain him... Makes me wonder what Nutjob Reed offered.

[Booch]

220 i bet

[17to85]

if it were me you'd have to offer a hell of a lot more. playoff bonuses still a thing in the CFL? can easily make a lower offer on a good team worth more than a higher offer on a tire fire team.

He should get plenty of playing time since the D will be on the field most of the game.

[Floyd]

$120k for Messam for one year...  seems fair tbh
